Even though we didn't see much of him on our TV screens back then, my sister and I really enjoyed it when we did. He must have made a lasting impression on me because some 30 years later, when I created a magician character in a MMORPG, the name 'Ali Bongo' came to mind even though I thought I'd long forgotten such! And during my time playing that game occasionally someone would message me with warm feelings that I had that name as my character. Funny how things turn out.
He was a wonderful variety performer loved by children because of his silliness his crazy costumes and he knew how to present magic in a colourful and exciting way ...a entertainer and a outstanding magician with extensive knowledge as member of the magic circle
@@sunnyjim1355 Ho Jim, the translation is: "I used to whatch him when I was a kid. A unique style". Ali Bongo is wonderful performer Who always remained in my mind. I always whatch him with great pleasure. 😁😁😁
Upset to find out that Ali Bongo is currently under house arrest following a military coup in Gabon. I sincerely hope he can abracadabara his way out of that one. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family right now.
